"Bent," is how I would describe very intelligent people though with serious flaws. Lenin, Marx, well even Hitler could have been considered genius though severely ''bent." Not to say Paul Krugman is the same likes as the previous mentioned men though he is very intelligent though I believe "bent."
Waste of intelligence.......
